Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

PolandThis is a hotel in an old, beautiful building, so you can forget about peaceful sleep night, unless you have earplugs (you can hear all the guests talking and walking in the corridor). The coffee for breakfast was ok, but served from an automat like in a train station - it would make a huge difference to have a nice coffee machine!
The bed was really comfy and the staff super friendly. The breakfast was really good, bread and pastries were fresh and tasty. Great room service and location (Rapallo is small, so it's relatively close everywhere).

RomaniaOld building on the inside as well. 2* is an overstatement considering that I haven’t noticed anything new (21st century) apart from the coffee machine and the +-15” LCD in the room
Old building looking lovely on the outside. Very close to Portofino, you can even go there by foot (1h+) Public parking close but be aware not to park on the moto zone

SpainIt felt a little odd having to leave our room key at the hotel when we left for the evening to get dinner, especially as we had valuables in the room, and there was no safe in which to store these. It’s a very safe little town but it felt strange!
We really enjoyed our stay here! The family room wag a great size with incredibly high ceilings, and tasteful decor in keeping with the style of the building as it would have been many years ago. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming to our two young energetic boys, and the location was great. The breakfast was generally good - the pastries and cakes were fantastic!

HungaryThe whole room had a strange smell- specialy the bathroom. We felt the same in the elevator- so it could be the building's.... The room is extremly small, you have no room to move, the only option is to sit down or to lie on the bed. The bathroom is kind of a bathroom purchased in a box- the same that you'd see on ships or on a train. It is falling apart- tiles and sink is moving was afraid to touch it. At the breakfast they served no bread, the rolls were too hard to chew on the first day- the next day they served the same rolls- they were so hard that you could hit someone with it and cause an injury.... Even the italian sweet breakfast (cake, they run out of croassaint by 9 am) wasn't fresh. All in all would not stay here again ,
The location is good- the next street to the sea and the promenade. I have to mention that the lady on Easter Monday morning was very nice and polite.

GermanyWe were supposed to have electric kettle, terrace, water, fruits, iron and etc according to what was mentioned in booking.com but none of them were there. We talked to them and asked them why these items were not available but they said that you should have asked for these which was not a good excuse. The WiFi was also not working properly. There was no phone in the room to call them. The shared toilet in the lobby was also not very clean.
The location of the Hotel. The staff were nice taking care of our luggage and taking them to our room while we were away. We asked for tea at night and they kindly provided it.
